Anchor's Rest was the perfect spot for our extended family of 11

Anchor's Rest was the perfect spot for our extended family of 11. The house was well presented and had everything we needed for a great holiday. The pool table was well used by all the adults. Really appreciated the pantry and fridge items available for use too. The lagoon and its clear sandy floor was a treat for our littlies. We would love to return sometime.

Wow, where to begin, the house in general exceeded my expectations, great facilities and location meeting all the needs for an extended family of seven including teenagers. Swimming and snorkelling fantastic, beach and sunsets amazing, Shripwreck Bar close by for that evening cocktail. Overall would highly recommend staying at Anchor's Rest best family holiday so far. Thanks

Amazing location

What a fantastic property, just awesome for the children, we didn't have...

What a fantastic property, just awesome for the children, we didn't have to go anywhere for fantastic swimming, kayaking and snorkeling. Being right on the water in such a safe spot was stress free and highly enjoyable. The property was well equipped with a store just a couple of minutes walk away and shipwreck bar a two minute walk along the beach.. Would highly recommend to families, our children ranged from 2yrs to 13 and it was brilliant.. I have no doubt we will be back... Thanks Mark

A fabulous location with a beautiful safe beach on its doorstep...

A fabulous location with a beautiful safe beach on its doorstep. Suited our small family group perfectly. Great for all ages. Felt like a family bach holiday with comfortable facilities and extras like BBQ, kayaks, snorkel gear and table tennis table all well used by us. Only reason not given 4 stars is felt kitchen was a bit tired & midweek we did not get a full change of towels, but were able to wash with supplied washing machine. Maybe we misunderstood. Overall magic experience.
